Crafter
Crafter is the redstone-controlled crafting block from 1.21, assembling recipes automatically when powered.
1.21
Description
Crafter is built from a crafting table, five iron ingots, two redstone dust, and one dropper, turning the familiar manual grid into an automation component. Each slot can be toggled on or off, so the block accepts only the pattern the player wants. When it receives a redstone pulse, it attempts the stored recipe and ejects the result from its front face.
The block is most valuable in factories that convert farm output into compact goods: bamboo into planks, kelp into dried blocks, nuggets into ingots, or ingredients into rockets and dispensable supplies. Hoppers, droppers, and water streams can feed it from several sides. Because one pulse equals one craft attempt, comparator clocks and item filters are usually needed to prevent jams.
